Another problem with the paleo diet

Not only have the various plants and animals in common consumption 'been evolved' (not least because humans want the versions that are most nutritious/tasty and also involve less work) but we humans have evolved over the last few thousand years. 86.146.100.82 (talk) 13:45, 23 March 2017 (UTC) Anyone else think something is wrong?

I think the article's trying to say that eating a lot of wheat is comparable to eating a lot of (but a smaller amount of) meat. Mʀ. Wʜɪsᴋᴇʀs, Esϙᴜɪʀᴇ (talk/stalk) 02:04, 10 October 2015 (UTC)

Oxymoron

Surely 'The "paleo diet", like most diets, has evolved over time and has many variants.' has an oxymoronic component? Anna Livia (talk) 18:34, 25 March 2019 (UTC)

Cream is animal fat

This article states that Paleo 2.0 would use cream as a close analog of animal fat. But cream is animal fat, because it is derived from animals. ^{— Unsigned, by: 184.89.103.161 / talk}

LessWrong

Someone more familiar with LessWrong than me should probably write about how popular paleo is there in discussions of what its members should eat. (Totally not a cult, by the way.) - Linneris (talk) 10:50, 18 July 2022 (UTC)

Seriously? They are into Paleo? Amazing.Bob^{"Life is short and (insert adjective)"} 16:58, 18 July 2022 (UTC)

How would yo alter the paleo diet to be more healthy?

What ingredients would you add or remove to make the paleo diet less healthy? What ingredients of the paleo diet or inherently unhealthy?

If it wasn't for the name "paleo", what would you criticism be? It seems the criticism in this article is almost always regarding evolution and what humans eat in the paleolithic era. So if someone ate a palo diet but called it something else, how would you criticize the ingredients of that persons diet? ^{— Unsigned, by: 2601:581:4502:2520:bd68:62c7:c9b1:f40f / talk / contribs}
